Here is a book as joyous and painful, as mysterious and memorable, as childhood itself. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings captures the longing of lonely children, the brute insult of bigotry, and the wonder of words that can make the world right. Maya Angelou’s debut memoir is a modern American classic beloved worldwide. Sent by their mother to live with their devout, self-sufficient grandmother in a small Southern town, Maya and her brother, Bailey, endure the ache of abandonment and the prejudice of the local “powhitetrash.” At eight years old and back at her mother’s side in St. Louis, Maya is attacked by a man many times her age—and has to live with the consequences for a lifetime. Years later, in San Francisco, Maya learns that love for herself, the kindness of others, her own strong spirit, and the ideas of great authors (“I met and fell in love with William Shakespeare”) will allow her to be free instead of imprisoned. Poetic and powerful, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings will touch hearts and change minds for as long as people read. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings liberates the reader into life simply because Maya Angelou confronts her own life with such a moving wonder, such a luminous dignity.”—James Baldwin From the Paperback edition.

This book was released on 2000. Caged Bird available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. July 17, 1983, Brian Fletcher spotted an overturned Peugeot station wagon laying in the Cottonwood River, near the Rocky Ford Bridge. He saw the dead body of Sandra Bird floating face-down in shallow water in front of the car. A single car accident on a deserted road? Or a murder? On November 4, 1983, Marty Anderson lay dead in a ditch alongside Kansas Highway 177, just east of Junction City. He had three bullet holes in his head. His wife Lorna and his four little girls witnessed the execution-style murder. A random robbery? Or a cold-blooded, premeditated murder? Rev. Thomas P. Bird served as Pastor of Faith Lutheran Church in Emporia, Kansas. Bird knew Lorna Anderson as the church secretary, a friend and a battered woman. Sixty men knew Lorna in a different way. Did the promiscuous woman and the church pastor conspire to rid themselves of their spouses and live together? CBS saw this true story as the perfect plot for a soap-opera-like movie, Murder Ordained. The infamous story of Tom Bird and Lorna Anderson aired internationally, but they got it wrong. So did two out of three juries. Thomas P. Bird entered Lansing Correctional Facility on August 30, 1984. He serves a life sentence as a result of the wrongful conviction of a Lyon County, Kansas, jury for the murder of Sandra Stringer Bird. Book jacket.
